Hey all, Tech here. Even tho my Nick says "BMW" I'm actually a currently certif. Ducati Mechanic. (Don't ask :laughing: )

I'm an American living in Napoli, Italia. Plenty of Ducs here and plenty of insane bikers. (And even less sane cagers!!) My current bike is an old Yamaha Seca 650 that I resurrected from a local junkyard back in America. Ex Staff Sergeant US Air Force, Currently taking Online and Night Courses w/ Embry Riddle Aertonautical University (overseas branch) in pursuit of a 4-yr degree. Unemployed at the moment, but that's OK, because I have a Sugar Momma :mrgreen:

If any of you ever feel like visiting Italy, come down to the crazy south ... eat some real pizza, and then we can go for a ride on the Amalfi coast, which, I'm sorry to say to Poppygene, but it certainly Rivals the Dragon at Deal's Gap ... :scooter:

Howdy folks. They call me Buzz.... not important why, just one of those things, ya know. I live in B-F Alberta, with the cows and the oil wells.

I help moderate the tech and off road forums, as well as the Rumor Mill(poorly). I also just realized that this sunday will be my 1 year anniversary as a member of this site. Time flys when your having fun :lol:

I have been riding motorcycles for 30 some-odd years, mostly offroad, but lots of street time too. I stopped riding on the street for a few years, mostly to live longer, I was getting pretty crazy with the roadbike there for awhile.... much safer for me to stick to the dirt for a few years. Getting older now, and have lost my desire for airtime, so I am currently slapping together an old GSXR streetfighter. Depending on how the next month goes for me, it will either hit the streets this spring as a ratbike for now, or (fingers crossed) bigger plans may come into being.

Gotta say, I love TMW!!! This is the best group of bikers I've ever run across on the net and Mike has built an awesome info resource here. The folks here have tons of experiance and info, and a sense of humor, but none of the brand/style jackassery of most other sites (well not TOO much, anyway :wink: ) It's all about the fun. Bikes are too much fun to get pissed off about.
No Witnesses.... :shifty:

G'day from Australia

Glad to see that TMW is back online again. :D

To all you riders who only have about 6 months of a year to ride in because of the climate conditions, come to Australia.

We can ride all year long :D

To all moderators, keep up the good work.

I currently ride a K1100LT. will post a few pictures when I get a chance in the next couple of weeks.

Cheers

Fearless

Hello All!! My name is Bret and I live in Las Vegas NV. I have been riding for about 15 years now. Took a little spill about a year and a half ago so I took some time off to ponder things. I finally came to my senses and bought a 1998 Honda Magna about 2 weeks ago!!! Glad to be back on 2 wheels again!!!

Hi everyone. I'm Ron and my son is vulcanman500 (Chris). I learned to ride in the seventies, against my parents wishes, and on the sly. In the eighties I revisited it on borrowed bikes, mostly off-road. This past august, Chris decided to get a bike, his first, and I decided to come back as a street rider. Both of us bought ebay bikes, and have combined mileage of over 8000 miles since early september. I have 4500, he has about 3500.

This site is the best one for advice of any kind. No lying, bragging story-tellers to lead you astray. The moderators wouldn't allow it anyway!

Great site!
Ride safe...God bless!
-Ron
